I use XP the most on my desktop, but my laptop is cursed with Vista. I think, rather than downgrading to XP though, I'm going to just fuck around on Vista until I have it down. This spring I'm thinking of buying another desktop, for the sake of learning Linux, without having to make work inconvenient by learning a new OS.

eric281 · 01-30-2008, 12:12 PM

I think Vista is getting a bad rap. When you compare it to every other major OS when it was new, it stacks up. Sure it takes more resources, because it does more stuff. I'm sure if you ran DOS 6.0 you could accomplish some computational tasks faster, doesn't mean DOS was better. New computers coming out can handle it, and as far as drivers, Vista might not support your old stuff, but it will obviously support any computer it comes stock on. I would never buy a copy of vista to put on an old pc, but I'm definately not buying new PC's for my company and taking XP instead of Vista.

Yesterday I had a meeting with a consulting firm (run of the mill IT/networking mom and pop operation) and the guy was in the meeting telling us that his company was a full fledged microsoft partner, and all microsoft certified. Told us about all the new/inside scoop they get from MS. Then 5 minutes later was telling us about how they don't deal with Vista much, and never recommend it, because they don't see any difference. Then when asked about the prospects of Server 2008, the guy basically said, "It doesn't have anything new, it's just server 2003 with a vista interface." Couldn't be further from the truth and anyone that is really in the know would realize that.

I guess it just boils down to too many people listening to media hype, and not really going after it themselves. Then again I see plenty of people who have Vista and aren't happy, but I wonder if other factors might effect that. For example, I wonder if people are seeing XP outrun Vista on comparable machines, which is probably true, but as I said before, Vista wasn't put out to run on all the machines you bought in the last year or 4, it is designed to go on the machines you will be buying for the next three years. Having 2 gigs of ram a year from now will be pretty standard. Another thing that might be changing the way we see Vista is the aftermarket support. I wonder if the "public opinion" (read - media opinion) has changed the ways other companies are supporting it. Kind of like the Beta/VHS or BluRay/HD-DVD fights where the superior product might not be seen in as good of a light or marketed the right way, and all the aftermarket supports something else. I can see how that would change someone's opinion when companies put less money into producing programs or hardware to utilize the new features in Vista and more money in other "popular" os's. Just wondering about some of these things today, maybe I'll do some reading myself.

ashleybaker · 01-30-2008, 02:43 PM

Used to use vista but nothing used to work with it, so little drivers for it (got it when it first came out). went back to xp, and will probably stick with it for a few years. don't see the point in going with linux, even though there seems to be as many ubuntu fanboys as apple fanboys now

.

might end up with a mac one day. once i've gotten round to trying out a mac. never used one. they look nice though

I'm running Vista when I'm at my day job and when I'm doing my own shit at home I'm running XP.

Netphase · 02-22-2008, 11:44 AM

I just installed Vista Ultimate and realized that they dropped the ability to move toolbars off the taskbar because it was "confusing" to computer retards that do it by accident and can't get it back to "normal". I have had a quicklaunch toolbar running along the right side of my screen for atleast 10 years. I start every program that I commonly use from that quicklaunch bar. I am keeping Vista for now to see if I adjust to it, but I have already considered going back to XP after less than 1 day.

My old XP desktop with quicklaunch sidebar.....

Mahzkrieg · 02-22-2008, 10:29 PM

I use a custom Vista Lite with all sorts of shit stripped from it like the speech engine, windows defender, games. It also has things like windows media player dekernelized and standalone for a more modular application arrangement.

Then of course most of the bloat is destroyed including shit like preinstalled windows themes and wallpaper and ALL that shit. Fucking garbage. Microsoft DESPERATELY needs to allow a custom installation where you can check/uncheck every preinstall.

I was using one of the XP Lite distros but decided to try out Vista Lite last Nov. Not bad.

jman4663 · 02-25-2008, 12:31 PM

I'm on OS X and i'm a complete Noob. I was afraid that I might need to switch to a PC but it looks like I don't have to at all.
Here's a question for other OS X users, are there any hosting companies you can recommend that work better for macs?

ashleybaker · 02-25-2008, 12:46 PM

it makes little (no) difference what os you are using with regards to your hosting company... or the other way round...

just get a decent mac ftp program and you should be sorted. if you're getting a bit advanced you will need something like putty for shell access. but i think mac has something like that built in? (should do ... based on unix) and maybe some db interface - but phpmyadmin should work fine (and is browser based) if you use mysql......

Win 2K on my old laptop. Dual boot Vista and Ubuntu on my new Dell. I followed the advice here (sort of) and it works OK.

radarig · 03-10-2008, 02:03 AM

I love the Macs, if only because I don't have to constantly upgrade to keep up with the software releases. I've had my G4 for about four years now, and now that I'm getting ready to update to CS3 I'm going with a new Mac Pro, which should last me even longer.

The thing I hate about them is the lack of options. The upgrades from their standard sets tend to be ridiculously expensive, so you're pretty much taking what they tell you to take, except maybe adding the $50 WiFi card. Not to mention the, uh, dazzling variety of styles they come in. Hooray for conformity.

goddfadda · 03-10-2008, 02:29 AM

Linux and OS X primarily, but have XP to test IE7 so all the dumbasses can add just "one more toolbar!" from one of my aff links... its funny tailin the log files when a non-advanced XP user visits the site. The referrer string is like 2k characters from all the damn toolbar signatures.

My new laptop came with Vista. Installed Ubuntu on a partition, but missed photoshop and illustrator, so I went back to Vista. Tried installing xp, but on this particular laptop it turned out to be a bigger pain than dealing with Vista. Next time I will look into buying a Mac.

Adwords editor runs fine in Ubuntu with wine.

windows xp because it just works, you can install everything in 1 second and everything just simply works

Quit planning and start writing the post. Could be a sticky as so many are disgusted with Vista, and both Vista and XP are probably going to go away.

Happy to keep plodding on with good old xp until i buy a new machine which will no doubt be furnished with vista.

Rage9 · 06-09-2008, 01:34 AM

Right now running Ubuntu Linux, which for all you vista/xp fanboys, is even better [imfho] than either.
With Wine you can run pretty much all your windows apps and games from linux.

Looking forward t OpenSUSE 11, which I think I'll be switching to.

mattgatten · 06-09-2008, 01:56 PM

Mac OS X at home
vmWare fusion (for when I have to use it to get to my work computer from home)

Linux RedHat ES on 8 cpu server (Apache and jBoss)

For those of you using Boot Camp or Parallels, give vmWare Fusion a look. I went through them all until I tried it. At less than 100 bones you can get it. The thing I like is its 'unity mode'. I can run a Win XP application that looks like it's 'native' to my desktop. Just select applications > app you want to run and the window launches no the Mac desktop. No looking at WinXP in a window all by itself if you don't want to. Very sweet. Plus, you can install any other OS's you want as well. I've got Fedora, Redhat, XP, and PCBSD all installed and can have one or more all running the same time. The only limitation is your system resources.

k, I'm done.

I enjoyed fooling with other OS's and I wish I had time to tweak but I get pussy on a regular basis. Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter __________________

hunmik - Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 161 iTrader: 1 / 100%	My new laptop came with Vista. Installed Ubuntu on a partition, but missed photoshop and illustrator, so I went back to Vista. Tried installing xp, but on this particular laptop it turned out to be a bigger pain than dealing with Vista. Next time I will look into buying a Mac.

Could be a sticky as so many are disgusted with Vista, and both Vista and XP are probably going to go away.
